German WWII Heer Hauptmann Officer Greatcoat | Infanterie-Regiment 32 | Private-Tailored | Near Mint

An exceptional German WWII Heer officer greatcoat, or Mantel, privately tailored for a Hauptmann, or Captain, of Infanterie-Regiment 32. Heavy, beautifully made, and preserved in remarkable near-mint condition, this is the kind of full-size uniform piece that immediately becomes a centerpiece in a serious WWII display.

The field-grey wool coat features a classic double-breasted six-button front and retains its officer shoulder boards bearing "32" regimental numerals for Infanterie-Regiment 32. The boards are fitted with gold-colored rank pips identifying the wearer as a Hauptmann.

Inside the collar is the private tailor label Johannes Mendel, Annaberg SA, identifying the civilian tailoring shop responsible for the garment. German officers frequently purchased higher-quality uniforms and outerwear privately, resulting in garments with heavier fabrics, superior tailoring, and a more refined fit than standard enlisted issue pieces.

Another excellent detail is the surviving internal DRGM-marked officer dagger hanger clip, designed to support the officer's dagger beneath the coat while maintaining a clean exterior appearance.

The combination of identifiable regiment, officer rank, private tailor label, dagger hanger, substantial wool construction, and exceptional preservation makes this an outstanding opportunity for anyone wanting a complete and visually impressive piece of original WWII German uniform history.
